Call barring

You can set up call barring for dif- ferent types of outgoing and incoming calls to restrict the use of your phone. To make use of this service you need to get a specific password from your network oper- ator, and then:

Select one of the call barring options below.

Activate your call barring.

Different options for call barring

Outgoing calls gives you three

new options:

All calls: Bar all outgoing calls

International: Bar all outgoing international calls

Roaming calls: Bar outgoing calls when you are connected to a foreign network (this still leaves you the possibility of making calls to your home country).

Incoming calls gives you two new

options:

All calls: Bar all incoming calls.

Roaming calls: Bar incoming calls when you are connected to a foreign network.

Status Check if your phone is barred in any of the above mention- ed ways.

Deactivate Cancel all your call bar-

rings.

Activate your call barring

Once you have selected the kind of call barring you want, activate it by pressing »OK«. Specify whether you want the call barring to apply to all services, or to the speech, data or fax services. You will then be asked to enter the 4-digit pass- word provided by your network operator.

Call waiting

Activate »Call waiting« if you want to be notified by a special ringing tone in case somebody is calling you while you are already having a conversation. You then have the option of answering or rejecting the new call.

Call back

Some networks offer the possibility of automatically establishing a con- nection to a busy subscriber when the number is no longer engaged.

The phone will inform you that the subscriber is busy and ask you whether you want to call back.

Select »Status« to see how many phone numbers are still waiting to be called back.

Select »Cancel all« if you want to cancel the remaining phone num- bers to be called back.

Calling name

presentation (CNAP)

Some networks offer the possibility of showing the name of your caller even though his number is not stored in your phone book.

To find out whether this service is available or not, select the option »Calling name presentation« and then »Status«.

Call deflection

On some networks you can sub- scribe to this feature which lets you forward an incoming call to another phone number. Press 4, fol- lowed by the other phone number to have an incoming call forwarded to the number entered instead of answering the call.

To find out whether this service is activated or not, select the option »Call deflection« and then »Status«.

Closed user group

This is a network feature by which the use of your telephone is restricted to certain phone num- bers within a group defined by the network operator and the owner of the SIM card.

Facts & Tips

Do not confuse call barring with the barred number phone book (p. 16). The barred number phone book only relates to the barring of specific num- bers entered by you.

Please note that during roaming, your phone can get in contact only with co-operating networks (except for emergency calls).

Your selection of a specific kind of call barring allows you not only to ac- tivate it. At this level, you can also see the status of the kind of call barring chosen by selecting »Status«, or can- cel the chosen kind of call barring by selecting »Cancel«.

You may be a member of different closed user groups. Each group has its own ID number. The network defines which group is your default user group. You have the option of calling outside the group – although perhaps at a higher charge.
